• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

1864 Virginia. Amidst the tangled hell of The Wilderness battleground, young Jesse Bob Blue, under the Rebel banner of the stars and bars performs a deed of memorable courage. In reward a grateful General Longstreet himself signs the furlough-permission that grants Jesse Bob home leave.
Many miles east of Virginia an arrogant rancher and his gang of violent vigilantes are invading the Indian homelands and leading a rapacious attack on a band of peaceful Indians. He is to go to his grave not knowing the far-reaching effects of what he has done. His wanton slaughter rouses the whole of Indian Territory and the tribes come together with vengeance on their minds. It is to be the biggest raid ever that has crossed the unprotected borders of Texas.
Kiowa, Comanche and Cheyenne Dog Soldiers join forces and sweep down towards the unsuspecting homesteads all across northern Texas.
Jesse Bob gets back to Beulah Creek to find a danger awaiting him and his loved ones far greater than those found on the hard fought and bloody battlegrounds of the Civil War.

Autorenporträt

It's not such a big step from pictures to writing.
And that's how it started out for me. I've illustrated more Western book covers than I care to mention and been doing it for a long time. No hardship, I hasten to add, I love the genre and have since a kid, although originally I made my name painting the cover art for other people, now at least, I manage to create covers for my own books.
A long-term closet writer, only comparatively recently, with a family grown and the availability of self-publishing have I managed to be able to write and get my stories out there.
As I did when illustrating, research counts a lot and has inspired many of my Westerns and Thrillers to have a basis in historical fact or at least weave their tale around the seeds of factual content.
Having such a visual background, mostly it's a matter of describing the pictures I see in my head and translating them to the written page. I guess that's why one of my early four-star reviewers described the book like a 'Western movie, fast paced and full of action.'
I enjoy writing them; I hope folks enjoy reading the results.
